Yin Xiang nodded, and suddenly his eyes widened in shock. Could it be that the He family was going to take action against Ye Xiang's two sons?
Yinxiang hurriedly advised: "Her two sons are only a little bit old. If something happens to them, they will definitely not survive. Then you will be sued for two lives..."
He said angrily: "Where did you think you were? I'm not that kind of person. I'm just two children, and I don't bother to do anything. Go and talk to her husband."
He whispered a few instructions in Yin Xiang's ear. After listening, Yin Xiang nodded seriously.
"Don't worry, I will definitely bring you what you said."
He glanced at Chen Xin and Ye Xiang, who were still talking in the distance, and left bitterly.
In the evening of that day, Ye Xiang received the money from Chen Xin and left the Hou Mansion through a side door carrying a small baggage.
Chen Feng came back after having dinner out.
It was rare for him to come back early, and he was carrying an oil paper bag in his hand, from which an attractive fragrance emanated.
He carried it with his own hands and did not let the maids and women help.
With a cheerful smile on his lips, he entered the room.
But when he saw that there was no one in the room, his smile disappeared and he asked calmly: "Where is the Crown Prince's wife?"
Si Qi said: "The Crown Prince's wife is at the Second Young Madam's place."
When she spoke, there was a trace of complaint in her tone that even she herself was not aware of.
Chen Feng was thoughtful and immediately heard something was wrong in Si Qi's tone.
He sat on the armchair and asked calmly: "Why are you at the Second Young Madam's place? Tell the truth."
Si Qi had no intention of covering up the matter, so he replied truthfully: "Today, Madam asked the Second Young Madam to help with the funeral affairs of Yue Ji's mother and son, and our Madam helped the Second Young Madam. This afternoon, we
My wife just came back from the second young lady’s place. Before the chair was warm, the second young lady sent someone to invite our lady over again. This went back and forth several times, and our lady didn’t even bother to have dinner, so she was taken over by the second young lady again.
Yelled."
Chen Feng frowned as he listened.
Even though he rarely stayed in the back house, he could tell that Qian was deliberately making things difficult for Fu Zhao.
Chen Feng felt strange again. In the past, he treated his brothers equally and never favored one over the other.
He was even more polite and respectful to his sisters-in-law.
Fu Zhao has the most docile temperament and will never offend anyone.
Why does Qian have to be at odds with Fu Zhao?
After thinking for a moment, Chen Feng stood up and headed out.
Si Qi hurriedly followed and asked, "It's so late, where are you going?"
Chen Feng said without looking back: "Go pick up my wife."
After that, Chen Feng continued to stride out.
Si Qi felt happy, as expected, the Crown Prince really cared about the Crown Prince's wife.
Si Qi hurriedly followed.
Chen Feng went straight to the door of Qian's courtyard but did not go in.
The maid guarding the door saw an extraordinary-looking man in azure robes standing at the door, and recognized him at a glance as their heir apparent.
The maid guarding the door hurriedly went out, bowed to Chen Feng, and then asked: "Is the prince looking for the second young master or the second young lady? It's cold outside, why don't you go in with the servant?"
The prince has a noble status, how could he be allowed to wait outside so late at night?
Otherwise, if Chen Yuan and Qian find out, they will have to be reprimanded.
The maid nodded and bowed, and asked Chen Feng to come in.
But Chen Feng stood where he was, motionless.
The maid was so anxious that sweat broke out on her forehead. The prince didn't say a word, so she couldn't continue to ask further questions.
The maid had no choice but to ask Si Qi, "Sister Si Qi, the crown prince..."
Siqi had long been dissatisfied with Qian's behavior of tormenting Fu Zhao, so she rarely put on airs towards the maids in Qian's yard.
Si Qi raised his chin and said coldly: "Our prince is here to pick up the prince's wife. When the prince's wife comes out, our prince will go back."
The maid scratched her head anxiously and said: "Then why don't you ask the prince to go sit in the room and wait, and I will make a bowl of hot tea for the prince."
Si Qi laughed and said, "It's very busy inside, so our prince won't go in and disturb us."
The maid said smoothly: "It's not busy, it's not busy inside."
Si Qi said in a strange tone: "How could it not be busy? During the day, when the Second Young Madam sent someone to invite our Crown Prince's wife, Sister Jin'er said that the Second Young Madam was already very busy here."
The maid saw that she couldn't talk to Siqi, so if she continued talking, her secret would be exposed.
The maid felt blessed and stood aside.
When Chen Feng and Si Qi weren't paying attention, she quietly slipped into the courtyard to talk to Qian.
In the room, Mrs. Qian was leaning on the couch, holding a ledger in her hand, turning pages from time to time, but her eyes did not fall on the open ledger at all.
Reading at night hurts his eyes, so Qian took special care of himself.
Looking at the other side, Fu Zhao was holding a brush in his hand, lowering his head and writing something.
Beside her table, there was only an oil lamp burning.
Sometimes when the wind blows, the wick of the lamp sways, and the light emitted also sways a few times.
Fu Zhao could hardly read the words clearly, so she stopped.
Qian glanced at Fu Zhao and said with a smile: "If my brothers and sisters are tired, please go home first. But these things are really important, so I have to keep my brothers and sisters. Although I asked the maid
It's the same thing when you come to copy them, but my mother told me to take you to learn how to be a housekeeper. If you copy these account books by yourself, you will have an idea. That's how I came here."
When Qian's words reached this point, there was no room for Fu Zhao to refuse.
Fu Zhao smiled, "I understand my sister-in-law's good intentions."
Fu Zhao continued to copy with his head down.
Qian picked up the snacks on the side and pretended to look through the account book while eating.
When the maid who was guarding the door broke in, Qian said angrily: "What does it look like? There are no rules or regulations."
The maid quickly blessed herself and said: "Go back to the Second Young Madam. The prince is waiting at the door of the courtyard and refuses to come in. He said he wants to go back with the prince's wife."
Qian couldn't help but cheer up.
She sat up straight and asked, "Is the Crown Prince really out there?"
"This slave dare not lie."
Qian looked at Fu Zhao and saw that Fu Zhao was still copying the account book after listening to the maid's words, and the movements of his hands did not stop for a moment.
Qian sat back slowly.
So what about the prince, why don’t you call her second sister-in-law?
And she asked Fu Zhao to come over today for Fu Zhao's good.
If Fu Zhao said something wrong about her in front of the prince, she would immediately go to Mrs. Chen to complain.
It would be best if this matter is made known to everyone. Then everyone in the Hou family will know who is the most suitable person to take charge of the central government.
With Mrs. Chen as a shield, Mrs. Qian was not afraid at all.
